Am 40 weeks pg,on saturday I saw discharge with a drop of blood then later had strong braxton hicks until around 1am which disappeared until yesterday 4pm, I've seen brownish little discharge from time to time since then with little cramping, am I okay
Female | 27
Maybe you’re having some symptoms that suggest your body might be getting prepared for delivery. The blood drop could occur because your cervix is beginning to open. A brownish discharge along with cramps are normal as well since this means that your body is readying itself for birth. Make sure you rest, drink plenty of water, and watch the cramps. If you start feeling worried or cramping gets worse don’t hesitate to contact a gynecologist.

Periods missed in this month
Female | 18
Stress, weight changes, high levels of hormonal imbalances, and overtraining can be some of the possible reasons. Pregnancy is another information for this condition if you are sexually active. If you don't have your cycle happen, stay calm, eat well, and get enough time for rest. If it continues so consult a gynecologist for guidance

Hi , I have pcod and before marrige i gone to hospitals and get treatment.They regularise my periods for 3months using tablets.But unfortunately ,my next periods occur in my mrg date so they gave me tablets to postpone.Then after a week of mrg i got my periods.But then i didnt get my periods.It is almost 6 months.can you prescribe me some medicine for my periods.
Female | 26
This occurs when hormones get out of whack, sometimes due to PCOD. To help regulate things, birth control pills prescribed by a doc can be useful; they help balance hormones and manage cycles. But before taking any meds, it's crucial to chat with a gynecologist first. They'll give personalized advice.

My period stop for atleast 4 months and I try homeopathy medicine but couldn't get my period and for the very first begining I couldn't get it on exact time , what should I do ? Please help me,am just 19 years old????
Female | 19
It's quite common for women aged 20 and under to have irregular periods. This can be due to stress, dietary changes, or hormonal imbalances. While homeopathy might have been helpful, it may be time to consult a gynecologist. A specialist can run tests to identify the cause and recommend the right treatment.

My periods are very irregular and heavy, I used to lose so much blood. But this time my periods came after 3 months and are still going on for more than 15 days. They're very heavy and have big mucusy lumps in the discharged blood. It's very painful. Immediate relief pills that contain tranexamic acid don't appear to work now. What should I do?
Female | 20
It seems like you may be having some serious changes in your menstrual cycle, which can be worrying. Heavy bleeding with large clots and prolonged periods may be the result of hormonal imbalances, uterine fibroids, or other diseases. While drugs may provide relief, the importance of receiving medical care cannot be overstated and this should be considered the first step, especially if the non-prescription drugs are not working. A gynecologist can do an in-depth examination of you and then prescribe the treatments that will match your condition and needs.

I had unprotected sex on 6th October Night and I took unwanted 72 on 7th October Morning. It has been 5 days since my missed period My period was supposed to be on 29th October but I haven't missed it. I did urine pregnancy test but it came negative However I feel nausea and vomittng and there is clear vaginal discharge. I am worried. I am 21 years old. What should I do?
Female | 21
Nausea and vomiting together with the missed period can be signs of pregnancy, but the negative test result is reassuring. The clear discharge may be normal vaginal discharge. Stress can also contribute to these symptoms. Keep an eye on your symptoms and if they continue or if your period still does not come along, consider talking to a gynecologist for further advice.

Sir, I am 17 years old girl and I'm suffering from irregular periods and whenever it comes it is heavy and painful.
Female | 17
Among the potential causes of heavy flow and pain accompanied by irregular periods are hormone imbalances, stress, too much exercise, and specific medical conditions. Observe your symptoms and see a gynecologist who will recommend appropriate treatment methods for you.

i was recently diagnosed with a bacterial infection in my vagina , i’ve noticed very painful white spots surrounding my vulva, what are these? i’ve been on antibiotics for 2 days.
Female | 14
The white spots around your vulva could be a sign of severe bacterial infection, named as Bacterial vaginosis. It is recommended that the condition be confirmed by a gynecologist who can perform the necessary examination and diagnosis. Depending on the severity of the infection, additional treatment with antibiotics will be prescribed.

I am having very light spotting since 2 of my periods cycle
Female | 23
It is normal to have barely noticeable spotting between your periods. This is usually caused by stress, hormonal changes, or the beginning of a new birth control method. Eat properly, sleep well, and try to reduce your stress levels. If it is frequent or you are concerned, then consult a gynecologist. They will do tests to ensure that there are no health issues.

Female | 18
Often, blood presence after partner ejaculation inside signifies potential vaginal irritation. Causes might include infection, inflammation, or hormonal imbalances. Although concerning, consulting a gynecologist enables identifying the root issue. They'll provide suitable treatment.

Labia break dangerous for me due to past mastrubate???? Labia shape ruined and break but no symptoms like pain or bleeding its problem create during sex??! Bcz i finger only labia upper lips not vagina
Female | 22
It's important to understand that minor changes or breaks in the labia from past masturbation are usually not dangerous, especially if there is no pain or bleeding. The labia can vary greatly in appearance and shape naturally. However, if you are concerned or worried about how this might affect your sexual health, it’s best to consult a gynecologist for a proper examination and advice.

After 26 day of periods there any possibility to get pregnant
Female | 24
Getting pregnant 26 days after your period starts is quite unlikely. That's close to when you ovulate, which means your body releases an egg. Most people have menstrual cycles around 28 days long, but cycles can differ. If your cycle is shorter, there's a tiny chance of pregnancy. If your periods are irregular, it's best to talk to a gynecologist.

Irigular periods 3 months not come perods
Female | 18
An odd interval means your periods doesn’t come at the same time each month. It’s because of stress, changes in weight, or hormone imbalances. If you have skipped more than three months without menstruating then it is recommended that you talk to a gynecologist. Moreover, other warning signs might involve acne, abnormal hair growth, and difficulty losing weight.

Female | 28
It is common to have light bleeding after taking emergency contraception; a negative test reduces the risk of pregnancy even further. It could be that your body is experiencing hormonal changes or it’s just under stress – there are many reasons for these symptoms. Also, irregular periods happen sometimes. But if they don’t go away soon or get worse in any way, make an appointment with a gynecologist.

I had protected sex on 4feb and 29feb was my period date on 2natch I m getting light bleeding
Female | 24
Pregnancy is unlikely. Your period on the 29th would have been too early for implantation bleeding . Bleeding on the 2nd of this month could be hormone related, due to stress, or a vaginal infection. See your gynecologist for an evaluation and some blood and urine testing.

i tried to make an appointment with my gyno, but they were all full. Just to clarify english is not my first language so i can't describe everything the best. I'm over here dying of pain, I'm drinking pain meds just so i can function somewhat normal. I'm an 18 year old girl that's been sexually active for around 2 years or so with one partner and this is the first time that this happened. I can say that the pain started a few weeks ago while having intercourse and i felt a pain in my vagina during certain poses( missionary) but as soon as we switched that stopped so i ignored it. We just avoided it and everything was fine, until it started to burn while peeing. After that we had one intercourse during which everything was okay but the intense pain started later and it calmed down in a few mins. Day after that i woke up in the middle of a night because of the pain. Everything felt sore, was burning and itching. Especially around the opening (don't know what else to call it) and i couldn't touch that part, there even was a bump on it . Curiosity got the best of me so i looked with a mirror and i kinda stretched my vagina so i can se inside of it and everything inside was covered in white small chunks (size of rice) and they were really sticky. Also, it smelled funky, but not like fish and there were practically no discharge. Since it was the weekend i couldn't do anything because no one is working. It hurts to stand,sit, walk, litterally anything. I was barely moving. That lasted until yesterday, when i woke up i went to pee and i found a big piece of something on my underwear and it was yellowish green colour. I touched it and the only thing that came to my mind that it was like a piece of toilet paper or something like that . After that the pain reduced, it hurts sometimes and while peeing. I looked with the mirror again and there's no more white chunks and nothing hurts when i touch, also the bump is gone. Is it possible that somehow a piece of paper got inside of me while having intercourse, that he pushed it in with his penis? That it got stuck and came out by itself? If not, please tell me what to do, or how to ease the pain. Btw, gyno isn't working till monday????
Female | 18
Based on what you said, it sounds like you may have experienced a vaginal infection. Pain, burning, itching, unusual discharge, and discomfort during sex are some typical symptoms. These infections can be caused by things such as bacteria or yeast. To help with the pain, you could sit in a warm bath or use a cold compress. It's important to go to a gynecologist as soon as possible.
